Audit-On-Connect activity reports show Audit-On-Connect connection events as they were logged

over time. Use these reports to troubleshoot and optimize Audit-on-Connect configurations.

SecurityExpressions Audit & Compliance Server dynamically generates reports based on

preconfigured or user-defined report profiles. When you first browse Audit-On-Connect activity, a

table appears with Audit-On-Connect preconfigured reports and any previously created user-
defined reports. SecurityExpressions Audit & Compliance Server provides five Audit-On-Connect

preconfigured reports, which are status reports over specific time periods. The top level table

shows names such as Status 01 Hour as a preconfigured report. Additional standard reports

include Audit-On-Connect Error Log and Audit-On-Connect Exceptions.

Click Show to open the saved report profile. Click Details to drill-down to see details.

Only the policies and scopes to which you have Use access rights appear for selection. Access

rights are set in the Windows Group Access options on the Policies page and Scopes page. If you
can't find a policy or scope you need to use, ask the item's creator or administrator to add you to

one of the Windows User Groups with Use access rights to it.

Furthermore, reports only display audit results involving scopes to which you have View access

rights and policies to which you have Result access rights.
